Fireworks +1
Like her?!
Qi Yu likes her? !
When did this happen?!
Xu Liang's body was completely stiff, like a frozen statue, without even the slightest tremor, and he forgot to breathe.
His two hands hung at his sides, his fingers half curled, and he was hesitant to take the next step.
Everything around her seemed to be isolated by an invisible shield. She could not hear any sound, and even the figure in front of her eyes gradually became blurred.
The brain then shuts down and completely loses the ability to receive and process information.
She felt like she was surrounded by a vast expanse of snow, and all she could see was a vast expanse of white space.
I don’t know how long it took, but Xu Liang could only think of that sentence:
Qi Yu...likes her?
Zhao Jingshu's figure slowly returned to view, and she heard her say again, "Qi Yu, I came back for you. I missed you so much. You and Xu Jing are clearly not suitable for each other. We are the most compatible. Have you forgotten? We were the most compatible team when we worked in groups during college."
Xu Liang only accepted the sentence "You and Xu Liang are clearly not suitable."
A strong emotion surged up, and before she could react, she subconsciously retorted: "How do you know we are not suitable?"
The woman in front of him froze, and her lips moved rapidly a few times, but only a few short breaths came out.
Looking up at her, Zhao Jingshu's expression froze. She seemed to have noticed something, took a step back, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Xu Liang swallowed unconsciously a few times, already familiar with the rolling Adam's apple in the middle of his neck.
She replied inexplicably: "We already live together."
Her heartbeat quickened as she spoke, and she suddenly felt that her words were incomprehensible.
But what she said was actually true.
She and Qi Yu did live together——
Living under the same roof is also considered cohabitation.
Zhao Jingshu's expression suddenly froze. Under the bright light, Xu Liang could even see her shrunken pupils.
The blood color on the woman's face suddenly faded, revealing a stiff paleness.
She didn't say a word, only her brows were furrowed and her lips were slightly open.
Xu Liang saw that her body was already unstable, and he retreated step by step. After putting some distance between them, the woman turned around and quickly fled.
Xu Liang himself was not able to calm down either.
Her mind was instantly filled with 'Qi Yu likes her', and she couldn't digest it at all.
She returned to the dining table with mixed emotions, and she no longer dared to look at Qi Yu.
I lowered my head, but I no longer felt like eating.
She poked her chopsticks back and forth on the food, but at least Zhao Jingshu beside her ignored her.
The topics at the table started and stopped, and started again, as if everyone had endless things to talk about. Song Ying and Qi Yu also said a few words from time to time.
She was the only one who spoke very little.
Another person who is as quiet as her is Zhao Jingshu.
Xu Liang finally came back to his senses when someone at the table suddenly asked, "Why haven't we heard from You Yi in the past few years? Where did he go?"
As expected, almost everyone's eyes turned to Song Ying.
There were very few couples in the class back then, and Song Ying and You Yi were the only recognized couple.
Xu Liang saw Song Ying's smile disappear instantly.
She wanted to step forward to help her out, but someone added, "I thought you were already married!"
The atmosphere at the table fell into an awkward moment.
Xu Liang was about to stand up, but Song Ying had already gotten there.
She laughed, her eyes calm, like a still lake, and her tone was gentle, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her: "I haven't heard from him in several years. Maybe he wants to leave this city and live in a new environment. Maybe in a few years, we won't be able to gather at the table together."
The two people who were deliberately trying to stir up trouble looked at each other, smiled awkwardly, and quickly changed the subject.
Everyone felt that this was an awkward topic that could be brushed aside.
Only Xu Liang knew that Song Ying had taken his words to heart.
She paid attention to Song Ying's expression. Song Ying also noticed her gaze, shook his head and smiled at her.
It means that she is fine and she should not worry.
Xu Liang pursed his lips, but accidentally bumped into the burning sensation next to Song Ying.
The two burning gazes carried sparks that hit her accurately. Xu Liang felt his cheeks react instantly and burned hot.
She quickly lowered her head and continued to dodge, but the burning heat that was coming towards her continued.
…
At the end of the dinner, Xu Liang was under Qi Yu's gaze. Densely packed threads coiled around his heart, swirling around and around, forming a chaotic mess of countless knots.
All kinds of thoughts, guesses, confusion, and shock were shattered into pieces, and all the emotions mixed together, stirring constantly in that soft organ.
Xu Kyung couldn't tell whether it was bitter or sweet, painful or numb.
After leaving the club, Zhao Jingshu hurriedly said goodbye and left with a bad look on her face.
Before leaving, he cast a fierce glance at Qi Yu.
Xu Liang just pretended not to see it.
At this moment, she just wanted to avoid Qi Yu.
She was going the same way as Qi Yu and Song Ying. After saying hello, she hurried to the car, but was stopped by Qi Yu the moment she got into the driver's seat.
"Want to get caught for drunk driving?"
He held her hand with a not-too-strong force and spoke in a calm tone.
Then she remembered that she had been drinking.
She was a little dizzy at the dinner, but after going to the bathroom she was completely sober.
Blocked by Qi Yu, the heart in his chest was like a frightened trapped beast, and it suddenly rushed left and right wildly.
The blood then rushed through the blood vessels and rushed fiercely to the limbs and bones.
Xu Liang felt his temples throbbing rapidly, in the same rhythm as the pounding of his heart, and his ears were completely drowned out by the thumping sound.
The alcohol also took effect, and Xu Liang could feel his cheeks and ears were red and hot without touching them.
The desire to escape could no longer delay, so Xu Liang turned around and wanted to run to Song Ying's car, but Qi Yu was one step ahead of her again.
"Why are you running?"
"I want to take Yingying's car..." Her voice was still trembling, as if she was back to the day when Qi Yu blocked her at home.
No momentum at all.
"You don't live with her." Qi Yu stared at her and stated the fact calmly.
"I……"
Before Xu Liang could refuse, Song Ying, who was not far away, was leaning against the car window and waving at them: "Xiao Liang, be careful on your way home. I have the day shift tomorrow, so I'm leaving first!"
In the end, all that was left for Xu Liang was the residual warmth of the car passing by.
“…”
"Mr. Xu, it seems you have no choice but to get in my car?" Qi Yu's mouth tilted lazily to one side, forming a very small arc.
Seeing this, Xu Liang's blood gushed out.
Finally, she got into the car in shame and anger, turned her back to him without even looking at him.
Not only did my heartbeat not slow down, it beat even faster.
She simply bit her fingers, trying to use the pain to relieve the tension, but it had little effect.
Her thoughts began to wander again: Did Qi Yu really like her? Why couldn't she see it at all? Seven years ago, Qi Yu rejected Zhao Jingshu, and the reason was still because he liked her? Qi Yu had liked her since seven years ago?
Suddenly I recalled what Qi Yu had said before, about where my first love came from.
But... even if there is no first love, this answer shouldn't be like this...
Liked her for seven years?
Isn’t this a bit too ridiculous?
If I like her, why do I still argue with her so much? If I like her, why don’t I respect her humanistic elderly care? If I like her, why do I still argue with her so many times?
Is there anyone who likes people like this?
This is totally illogical.
Her fingers were numb from being bitten by her.
But at the same time, she also noticed that beneath that ridiculous shell, there was a hint of warm sweetness emanating.
Tiansi first tentatively poked its head out, and after confirming the surrounding environment, it extended wildly like a vine, penetrating every nerve in the body.
Every nerve ending seemed to be soaked in honey.
Even someone like Xu Jing who loves sweets finds it too sweet.
"What did Zhao Jingshu say to you when you went out just now?"
Xu Liang's thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and he shuddered.
Even though his back was facing Qi Yu, his eyes still turned around in panic. He still mentioned this matter, and his words became more halting: "Nothing...Nothing..."
Her eyes fixed on the glass window, she saw Qi Yu turn his head, then quickly turn back.
His breathing seemed unsteady. "Really? Then why is your face so red? Did you know something?"
Xu Liang was startled and the force between his teeth increased.
How could this person ask such precise questions?
Xu Liang's tone was completely dazed, and every word he said was very difficult: "I... I was drunk... I don't know anything..."
In the narrow environment, only the sound of interlaced breathing can be clearly heard.
Qi Yu was silent for a long time, and finally said meaningfully: "Is that so?"
…
The journey took more than ten minutes, but Xu Liang felt like almost a century had passed.
After finally reaching the parking lot, she ran out of the car as if fleeing, but she never expected to run into her parents.
"Mom and Dad?! Why are you here?" She called out subconsciously, and when she noticed the surprise in their eyes, she suddenly realized that she had called the wrong person.
She raised her hand to cover her lips, wanting to make amends, but she found that there were three people following her parents.
Qi Yu's parents.
And Zhou Qingyue.
When things were full of danger for Xu Liang, she subconsciously looked for people who were on the same side as her.
Qi Yu's expression changed slightly after seeing their parents and Zhou Qingyue, but he was not too shocked, as if all this was within his expectations.
"Mom, Dad, Uncle, and Aunt." Qi Yu greeted them.
"Ayu, you didn't even tell mom and dad about such a big thing?" Qi's mother asked with a little seriousness.
…
Xu Liang only then realized that they were the ones who knew about their cohabitation.
And the instigator of all this was Qi Yu.
The incident started with a phone call in the morning, which was also the call that woke Qi Yu up.
When Xu's father and mother went to their daughter's place and found that she was not at home, they called to ask, only to find out that their daughter was living at Qi Yu's house.
The two of them didn't expect that two people who just said they liked each other would live together so quickly.
Xu's mother immediately told Qi's mother about this. Qi's father and mother were completely unaware of this. Although they had always liked Xu Liang, they had never expected that their son would live with someone without saying a word.
As for Zhou Qingyue, he found out about the two living together when he visited Xu's parents. He had also heard from Yi Ling that the two had been very close recently, and that there were even rumors circulating in the nursing home that Qi Yu liked Xu Liang. He said that as Xu Liang's senior, he had to come along.
Xu Liang sat on the sofa with his hands curled up in his legs. On the surface, he looked fine, but in his heart he wanted to tear Qi Yu into pieces.
He actually said that!
Now she had to admit that they were living together because they were together. It was too weird to tell her parents about the soul swap.
The instigator was not afraid at all and said that they were just living together, but they still maintained the proper distance.
“…”
Xu Ying didn't dare to look at her parents' expressions, for fear that her father would disown her in a fit of rage.
"Ayu, this matter is your responsibility. How could you hide it from your parents?" It was Qi's father who spoke with a slightly serious tone.
What could Xu Liang do? Of course he could only follow their instructions and apologize.
Deep down, she felt even more resentful towards Qi Yu. She glanced at him stealthily, wishing she could bite him hard on the shoulder!
However, the parents of both families did not come to cause trouble this time. After a little lecture and reminder, seeing that the two had a good attitude, they finally accepted it.
What happened next was that Xu Liang was called to the balcony by his father, but he was calling him "Qi Yu".
She looked at her father awkwardly, waiting for him to speak first.
"Ah Yu, although uncle doesn't object to you and Xiao Jing being together, and I heard her say before that you like her very much, I still want to say that you are not allowed to bully Xiao Jing. You can hold different opinions in your careers, but in love, you need to be tolerant."
Xu Liang only heard one sentence from his father:
'You like her very much'.
She didn't say that.
In other words, it was Qi Yu who said this.
My memory goes back to last week.
They ran into Song Ying's parents at their house, and then they pulled Qi Yu aside to talk to him about something. At that time, Qi Yu said he didn't say anything nonsense...
That was the time...
She didn't listen to a word her father said afterwards.
I only remember mechanically responding to him at the end: "I will definitely treat her well!"
Even she herself found this statement funny after realizing it belatedly.
But Xu's father really believed it.
They left together again.
Only Zhou Qingyue was not very happy.
Before leaving, he suddenly turned around and said that he had something to say to Qi Yu. Although Xu Liang didn't know what Zhou Qingyue was going to say, she still planned to follow him out, but Qi Yu tried to stop her.
In the end, I couldn't stop it.
In the empty fire escape, Xu Liang was still waiting for Zhou Qingyue to finish speaking. She needed time to go back and have a good chat with Qi Yu.
At the very least, we shouldn't continue to panic for no apparent reason.
"Qi Yu, you are not suitable for her." Zhou Qingyue said suddenly.
Xu Liang hadn't expected this.
It was like they were back at the bathroom door of the club, and Zhao Jingshu said the same thing, saying that they were not suitable.
For some reason, Xu Kyung felt that the words "inappropriate" were very harsh.
"If I'm not suitable for her, who else is?" Perhaps due to the effect of alcohol, she exerted her fighting power to the extreme, and her tone was cold and sharp.
Become exactly the same as the ordinary Qi Yu.
However, Zhou Qingyue wasn't one to be swayed by a few words. He frowned and said, "Qi Yu, you let Xiaoliang tell the staff at the nursing home that you like her, letting everyone in the nursing home know that you like her. How real is this kind of love that's gained through bluffing?"
“The entire nursing home knows about this?” Xu Liang was even more surprised.
Qi Yu not only told her parents that he liked her, but he even let everyone in the nursing home know?!
However, attention was quickly drawn back to Zhou Qingyue.
Xu Liang was in a trance for a moment, and felt like he saw another side of Zhou Qingyue.
In the past, he always appeared in front of her with a gentle and humble appearance, and he was thoughtful, meticulous and principled in his work.
But now, he seemed to be demonstrating in front of 'him'.
Is this the reason why Qi Yu doesn't want to call him 'Brother Zhou'?
Zhou Qingyue's expression remained unchanged, but within his calmness there seemed to be an unmistakable undercurrent. He continued, "Qi Yu, it's perfectly fine for you and Xiao Liang to be friends, but as a lover, you're definitely not a good match for Xiao Liang."
Xu Ying didn't understand why Zhou Qingyue wanted to interfere in her and Qi Yu's affairs, and still responded coldly: "This is between me and her. At least, we like each other."
After saying this, Xu Liang himself was a little stunned.
I laughed secretly in my heart, she actually said such words.
Like each other...
Not bad.
Zhou Qingyue remained silent for a long time. She didn't know if it was Xu Liang's illusion, but she saw an extremely sharp light flash in his eyes. The inherent warmth in him seemed to disappear for a moment, replaced by an unignorable chill.
Before Xu Liang could think about it, he turned and left, leaving only one sentence: "You won't be gone for long."
Xu Liang frowned and stared at the receding figure, feeling that her senior brother was acting strangely tonight.
But compared to him, she wanted to go back and confront Qi Yu more.
Too much happened today, she received too much information, she had to figure it out, she had to figure it out.
Does he like her? When did he start to like her? And why does he like her?
There was a hint of alcohol on her breath, and she was back to being slightly tipsy, her nerves slightly excited. After pausing for two seconds, she pushed open the door.
She subconsciously looked for the person in the house, but that person didn't wait for her to react. Before she could even take off her shoes, he had already pushed her against the wall.
Before she could utter a word, her lips were blocked by a fierce force.
Xu Liang lost his balance and fell onto the soft stool at the entrance.
